Summer Solstice In need of some last-minute travel ideas, local meteorologist Shelley Sakala offers up some suggestions for historic seasonal revelry. JUNE WAS ALWAYS the kind of month that needed a holiday. In this time between Memorial Day and the Fourth of July, we’re stuck working full weeks with no relief in sight. No three-day weekend, no national holiday. Just 22 days of cubicle life. And while it’s hot enough for a visit to the beach or pool, you’ll have to burn a personal day if you want some time off. That’s mighty unfair, especially considering the longest, sunniest day of the year—the summer solstice—happens to fall in June. On a Monday, no less. Yuck. Maybe that’s why ancient cultures put down their stone tablets and papyrus scrolls and celebrated the solstice with such gusto. So to help us get through the June gloom, I’m devoting this article to our hard-partying ancestors who truly knew
12 || 85085MAGAZINE.com || JUNE 2016
how to honor these celestial phenomena. It’s time to party like it’s 1599!
What is the summer solstice? The summer solstice is a planetary event in which our North Pole points more directly toward the Sun than on any other day of the year. This year it happens on June 20. As a result, it’s the longest day of the year for anyone who lives on the top half of the Earth. While that may sound completely horrible to a Phoenician, a person living in Norway or Bulgaria with vivid memories of last winter might actually welcome this extra sunlight.
History Back when people were first smart enough to notice this annual occurrence, the day
was given the name Midsummer. Later in history the astronomers began referring to it as the summer solstice. Like many holidays, the modern celebrations of Midsummer are the blend of different cultural elements borrowed and shared throughout history. Ancient Romans would hold a Midsummer festival on June 20, honoring the god Summanus with wheel cakes (round cakes made from flour, milk, and honey). In 14th century Germany, women would use this day to wash their arms in the Rhine River in hopes of washing away all the bad stuff that’s headed their way. Christians have used this time of year to honor St. John the Baptist, believed to have been born six months before Jesus. Although it’s not a well-known holiday in the U.S., Midsummer Day is a public holiday in parts of Eastern Europe and in Quebec. In some parts of the world the Midsummer Festival rivals Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve in terms of popularity. But not everyone was always on board with this kind of revelry. In seventh century Europe, St. Eligius tried to preserve the solemnity of the Feast of St.

Tenant Rights Protect your business interests by knowing your options as a tenant. By Stephen A. Cross BECAUSE TENANTS and landlords have opposing economic objectives, it’s vital that each side understand its rights and take reasonable and prudent steps to protect these rights. The following is a brief summary of the unspoken rights of tenants.
1. Know what concessions can be negotiated A concession is any deviation from the property owner’s advertised lease rate. Commercial leases contain numerous variables that affect the overall cost of occupancy, and can include such items as the lease term, the initial rental rate and escalations, free rent period, tenant improvement allowance, warranties, operating expenses, options to expand or extend, the leasable area, and others.
2. Know where the best deals can be found Not all property owners have the same urgency to lease space. A particular landlord’s willingness to grant concessions can vary from week to week. Generally speaking, the best deals are struck when the tenant has, or is perceived to have, multiple choices and landlords are forced to compete for the tenant’s revenue stream.
3. Know who protects your interests (and who doesn’t) Property managers and real estate agents who list properties are de facto employees of the property owner and have a fiduciary duty to protect their client’s interests, not the tenant’s. Because they are the eyes and ears of the landlord, be wary about disclosing any information about your businesses circumstances that may serve to dilute your negotiating leverage.
4. Have competent, unbiased representation Your choice of representatives largely determines which properties you are exposed to, the price you will pay, the concessions you will receive, and the overall quality of the negotiations.
5. Get value from the commission Most commercial leases include a commission that is split between the agents or advisers who represent each party. Therefore, having a seasoned advocate on your side to protect your interests generally costs you nothing. JUNE 2016

LESLIE C. PREDMORE, NMD
Each IV therapy session lasts between 30 and 60 minutes, during which a patient can recline in one of Infuse IV Nutrition and Sport Recovery's comfortable lounge chairs.
“I ’ m a true believer that if you do things the right way and you are fair to your clients, then your business will grow.” —DR. LESLIE C. PREDMORE Sport Recovery’s comfortable lounge chairs while listening to music, watching television, reading, or surfing the Internet. The treatment generally involves minimal discomfort and the patient is safe to resume all normal activities immediately afterwards. Infuse IV Nutrition and Sport Recovery’s managing RN, Donna Buonincontri, RNC-NIC, BSN, oversees IV therapy. “Donna is also a head RN at a local hospital in the neonatal ICU caring for premature and distressed newborns. Imagine giving an IV to those little guys! Yes, she is good at what she does,” explains Leslie. While the challenges of running two local businesses can be daunting, Leslie is more than up to the multitasking. “One of the reasons I began my practice in the North Valley is that I’m a true believer in giving back to the place where you live. The overwhelming kindness and loyalty that I have received over the past several years from this community only strengthens my resolve to stay local and be part of a community that I love and that has given me so much,” she says. “I’m a true believer that if you do things the right way and you are fair to your clients, then your business will grow. I have experienced this first hand. Moving forward I plan on continuing to provide excellent services to my clients and give them the best possible pricing for those services. I don’t make my business grow, my clients do.”
Q: What advice would you give to your younger self? A: As a professional woman I would tell my younger self to believe in yourself, persevere through adversity, don’t listen to the doubters, you can do whatever you put your mind to, anything is possible. Q: What comes to you naturally? A: I’ve always felt confident in my knowledge and abilities with medical procedures and comforting my patients while doing so. Q: What is your biggest pet peeve? A: Mean people Q: What are you most proud of? A: I’m most proud of growing my business honestly and with integrity. Never recommending anything to my patients that they truly do not need or would not benefit from. JUNE 2016

Summer Can Be a HairRaising Time! Three essential solutions to help your hair look soft and shiny when it’s hot outside. By Diana Bocco
WELCOME TO SUMMER. A time of golden tans, longer days, and—ruined hair? Unfortunately, summer can be more than unkind to your hair. Unless you take the necessary precautions, you’ll end up with frizzy, dried-up hair. And those sun-kissed highlights? They’re actually your hair oxidizing as a reaction to the light—and oxidization means dry and weak tresses. “The hair is born with 89 percent keratin, 6 percent moisture, and
42 || 85085MAGAZINE.com || JUNE 2016
the rest vitamins and minerals,” says local celebrity stylist Amy Freudenberg, who has styled the hair of top celebrities such as Pamela Anderson and Angela Lansbury. “The environment you live in can strip the hair of these components, resulting in dry, stringy hair. The solution? A simple but effective regimen of hair care can help you fight the effects of summer and the heat while keeping your hair looking soft and shiny.
1. Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize
Hair needs moisture to prevent drying out. Freudenberg recommends using a hair-care product to add moisture and protect against harmful rays before heading outside. Moisturizing is especially important if you’re going to be taking a dip in the pool. Freudenberg advises using specialty products you can spray into your hair before hitting the pool to add moisture and UV protection. “This will keep chlorine out, which is a good thing because chlorine will fade hair color and strip hair of essential moisture,” she explains. For best results, Freudenberg recommends using a cream leavein conditioner with thermal and UV protection built in. “This will prevent frizz and healthy hair becoming dehydrated hair,” she says. “Mixing a keratin or protein deep conditioner with a moisture treatment is a great cocktail idea.” And for added benefits, retire your hair dryer during the summer
months. “Try to air-dry hair during summer days as well, or don’t wash for a couple of days, especially if you are living in an extremely hot climate,” Freudenberg says.
2. Add Some UV Protection
Your skin is not the only part of your body that needs protection from harmful rays. Hair-care products that contain UV or added UVC protection are key to maintaining the health of your hair and retaining moisture, according to Freudenberg. Also, lack of UV protection will cause color to fade faster, so this is especially important if you treat your hair chemically on a regular basis. “I recommend a spray type, not a cream leave-in conditioner for when you’re outside in summertime, simply because of the convenience of just misting and going,” Freudenberg says.
3. Go Easy on Chemicals
You don’t have to let your roots grow or your gray show during the summer, so by all means, go ahead and keep coloring your hair. But to help during summer’s already drying climate, you might want to choose to go easy on other chemicals and processes, such as straightening. “The added acceleration of chemical services plus the hot drying climate can cause very dry hair,” Freudenberg says. And if you’re willing to deal with those annoying roots for a little longer than usual, Freudenberg advocates hats, topknots, and braids as great ways for masking overdue color, and they can make you look fashionable, too. “If you can’t lay off the chemical services, make sure you’re using a deep moisture treatment once a week during summer time,” she adds.

‘Healthy’ Foods That Pack On the Pounds
Health writer Diana Bocco exposes the supposedly good-for-you foods that may be sabotaging your diet.
DRINK YOUR ORANGE juice, eat your salad and…get fat? If you’re watching what you eat but the numbers on the scale aren’t budging, you might be consuming more calories than you think. From liquid calories to not-so-healthy snacks, new research indicates that even the most innocent-looking foods can pack on the pounds if you’re not careful.
ORANGE JUICE
Freshly squeezed fruit juices seem like a safe bet healthwise. That is, until you learn that a single glass of orange juice contains nine teaspoons of sugar—the same amount you’ll get in a can of soda. But surely the sugar in fresh orange juice is healthier than the added sugar in a Coke, right? Nope! Once it gets into your body, all forms of sugar are processed in the same way. “Those of us who consume sports drinks, sodas, energy drinks, or juice but want to lose weight need to switch to water,” says Ann A. Rosenstein, a certified fitness professional and the author of Diet Myths Busted: Food Facts, Not Nutrition Fiction. According to Rosenstein, just by making that switch, you’ll eliminate between 100 to 500 calories a day depending on how much you consume.
SALADS
Sure, the veggies are healthy. It’s what you add after mixing the vegetables together that packs on the calories. For example, did you know that KFC’s Crispy Chicken Caesar Salad (which comes with croutons and Creamy Parmesan Caesar dressing) packs 640 calories and 39 grams of fat? That’s almost as much as a double Quarter Pounder with cheese (which has 740 calories and 42 grams of fat). To cut down on calories, always ask for the dressing on the side and make sure that all ingredients are healthy. Avoid any salad that includes the following words in its name: crispy, creamy, honeydipped, cheesy, and glazed. These all indicate the addition of something yummy—and very high in calories and fat.
44 || 85085MAGAZINE.com || JUNE 2016
BANANA CHIPS
They sound healthy enough. After all, they started life as a fruit. Of course, that was before they were coated in sugar and fried. A fourounce serving of banana chips contains 588 calories, 38 grams of fat, and more than 40 grams of sugar. That’s the equivalent to almost three Kit Kat bars. Apple chips are a bit better, but not by much. A four-ounce serving contains 520 calories and 24 grams of fat.
SPORTS DRINKS
They are designed for people who exercise, so they must be a good choice, right? Not necessarily. The typical sports drink contains 28 grams of sugar in a 16-ounce bottle. That’s about seven tablespoons of sugar—not much better than soda (a can of 7-Up contains 37 grams of sugar). Sports drinks were originally designed for marathon runners and people who engage in intense physical activity for hours at a time. But if you’re only using the stationary bike for 30 minutes, you’re burning around 250 calories or less. A 16-ounce bottle of Powerade contains 140 calories, which cancels out more than half your workout. So what to do instead? As Ann Rosenstein advises, drink plain, old-fashioned water. “The purpose of drinking is to quench thirst, not to provide energy, look pretty, or help you socialize,” says Valerie Goldstein-Berkowitz, a registered dietitian and the creator of the blog Valerie’s Voice: For the Health of It. “Water is the best way to quench thirst. It is calorie free and cost free.” Still unsure of what to eat? Experts recommend keeping it simple. Stick to unprocessed foods that are as close as possible to their natural state, and you’ll be saving lots of calories.
